“Nightcap At Rex Hotel presents an interesting blend of pub culture and accommodation. I noted its large three-bedroom apartments and proximity to the airport as real advantages for groups or those catching early flights, without sacrificing a location only ten minutes from central Adelaide. The on-site dining and lively sports bar create a social atmosphere that distinguishes it from typical hotels.”
